Help Looking for a better alternative to the "Peel" Smart Remote app that comes with the Note 10.1?

[Moniker76]

I just purchased a Samsung Note 10.1 yesterday and am looking for a better app then "Peel" to control and manage my TV and DVR experience. "Peel" seems like a great idea, however, it has very limited settings, the populated lists are small (probably for caching reasons), there is no option to record, I can't simply view the entire guide only the content populated. I do really like the top picks feature and how it tunes to list content that you like from what you have selected as a favorite or watched in the past.
I am seeking a guide/remote combo like "Peel" just better not a universal remote only or guide only app, I want to click on the content and pow it's on my TV! Links would be appreciated...

On another note possibly someone can help me resolve my "Peel" app from changing the input on my TV the first time I launch it. Problem is during the TV setup portion it asks what input your cable/satellite box is on, so I set it correctly, however, my TV doesn't have multiple input buttons just one input button that cycles through the inputs one after another and the "Peel" app seems to think that my TV has a button for each input, causing it to just advance me to the next input even when I am on the correct one and or am powered down! How do I fix this besides blocking the IR-Blasters path after I launch it e every time?

Thanks ahead of time!

Hello and welcome, Moniker (nice moniker ).

I've seen several coming along since last year. Harmony has a few (Logitech) with differing configuration abilities. A search in Play Store yields a lot to look at along with their reviews.

Hoping others will chime in.
